Chapter 28: The New Year Is Approaching

Although Zhezhe burned the attic of the Shizi's Mansion, Ye Qiongwen did not pursue anything, as long as people found it, this attic can be rebuilt.

After resting in the house for a few days, Zhezhe returned to his normal state, and every day he always wrote a letter to the refuge and asked the messenger to hand it over to Kurong. Ku Rong knew that she and Yin Si were reconciled as before. Although this letter was addressed to him, only half a page was mentioned about him, and after receiving the letter, he only read one page, and let it all be delivered to Yin Si's hands.

In the letterbox in Yin Si's study, it didn't take long for it to be filled with Zhezhe's handwriting, sprinkled with thousands of words, describing her daily life in the palace.

After Zhezhe teased Zhao Rui to write a guarantee that day, the entire capital of Wu was plastered with the content of his guarantee, and the people in the capital gathered around the content of this letter and discussed it until the end of the year, which was not lively.

After Zhao Rui returned to his mansion from the prince's mansion, he really dismissed the singers and dancers in the mansion, leaving only a few maids who served tea and water, and a few rough servants.

Not only that, but it was his own mansion in the Qi Kingdom, and he also wrote a letter back, sending all the beauties he had collected in the past two years out of the mansion, and each of them gave 50 taels of silver, and he could no longer have anything to do with him. In the past two years, the pavilions and pavilions built in his house for pleasure and pleasure were also renovated and renovated by him, and they were changed into library pavilions and reading pavilions.

Now, not only the capital of Wu State, but even the Qi State side are all rumors about Gongbo Zhezhe.

When the emperor of Qi saw this, he was comforted, and even wrote to the royal family of Wu, saying that he would send 20 envoys to Wu to formally propose to the second lady of the Gongbo Mansion, Gongbo Zhezhe.

In Zhao Sheng's eyes, as long as he can cheer up his son, don't look for flowers and ask willows anymore, get drunk and dream of death, not to mention the content of the promise guarantee, even if Zhao Rui is tied up and thrown into the Gongbofu District, he has no opinion.

Yin Si looked at the information handed over by Qingwan Pavilion, frowned slightly, came out of the study, and went to Dali Temple to find Liang Zhecheng.

Because Du Jiang returned, the emperor asked Dali Temple to transfer all the voodoo-related cases at hand to Jing Zhaoyin, whether it was the file or the corpse left there.

These days, Liang Zhecheng is busy with the handover task, and he has just finished it early in the morning, and before he sat down to drink two sips of tea, Yin Si came to the door.

"Brother Li, why are you free to come to me today?" Liang Zhecheng sat on a stone bench in the courtyard of Dali Temple basking in the sun, crossed Erlang's legs, next to a pair of tea sets, and two plates of pastries.

"Brother Liang is so interested," Yin Si sat down across from him and said a cup of tea to himself.

"What a good interest, I didn't eat early this morning, and I've been busy until now," Liang Zhecheng shook his head and sighed, Originally, this should have been done by their adults, but because the adults of his family wanted to transfer the case to Du Jiang, they were angry and didn't go out in the house, it had been seven or eight days, and the case next to him was not tried, and Zao Chao also asked for leave because of his illness.

"Lord Huang, haven't come back yet?" Yin Si looked at the empty courtyard, a little deserted.

"Estimate, it's going to be the New Year," a few days later, the whole capital is lively, the people are busy buying New Year's goods, purchasing new things, everyone is beaming, at this time in the past, Dali Temple is also lively, Huangpi doesn't want to let this government be cold and quiet, are asking people to pull some red cloth, hang it on this tree, so as to look festive.

"Still angry?" I know that Lord Huang is angry with Emperor Ye for the sake of voodoo, but the emperor has his own considerations, a courtier, he should have some stomach and consciousness, how can he keep hiding from the government and not come to the mansion on a business trip?

"My lord is like this, but this time he is more angry," Liang Zhecheng has clearly known since he took office in this Dali Temple, Huang Pi's temper and personality, the emperor likes him very much, and appreciates him very much, many things, he will explain clearly to Huang Pi in private, this time, I don't know why, the emperor has no use to explain, Huang Daren is angry, hiding at home and calling him sick.

"Fortunately, these days, there are no big cases," Liang Zhesi twisted a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, the New Year is approaching, and the guards in the capital are also on guard, for fear that someone will have a crooked idea at the end of the year, disturbing everyone's interest in the New Year.

Anyway, it was Jing Zhaoyin who wanted to rob them of the case, so it was better to take it all, don't just take the big head, and leave the sesame grain to them.

"Has Liu Ying been recovered?" Yin Si saw the sweetness of the pastries he ate, so he twisted a piece of it himself and tasted it in small bites.

"It's been sent back to Liu's Mansion," Liang Zhesi nodded, and back, sure enough, Liang Zhezhe came to her, saying that he knew Liu Ying's whereabouts, so he sent someone to look for him, and then sent someone back. Originally, he wanted Huang Pi to say goodbye to Na Xiucai, but Lord Huang was sick, and Liang Zhesi felt the most stupid, so he had to go to his father and mother to talk to the matchmaker.

Who knows, before she could say a word, her mother put the knife on Liu Yuanwai's neck, and his father also beat up several of his sons, forced Liu Yuanwai to sign and draw a pledge, agreed to marry his daughter to Xiucai, and gave the dowry and the house, promising not to embarrass the couple after they left.

Liu Yuanwai was about to kowtow and beg for mercy, so he could only agree. After his parents left, Liang Zhesi went several times, came to apologize, and took a look at the two of them, whether they were harshly reprimanded, and still there, Liu Yuan took care of their prime minister's mansion, and married Liu Ying in three days, and the two of them settled down in a house in the south of the city.

In the past few days, seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, Na Xiucai wrote a lot of couplets, and made a rubbing of the door god himself with wood, and printed a lot of portraits of the door god. I personally took it to the market to buy, although his words are not good-looking, but the door god rubbing is very expressive, and the people are buying it from him, and he has also earned a batch of silver, at least until the imperial examination next year, he is not short of silver.

"That Xiucai is still a little talented, and he is also clever, not a nerd," Liang Zhe thought about it, so he beckoned to the guards on the side, and asked him to take the portrait of the door god sent by Xiucai for him, saying that he would give it to Yin Si, and let Yin Si write another couplet and paste it on the door of the house where he lived, so as to touch the joy of the New Year.

"Over there, the people in the Imperial History Mansion, can you go back?" Liang Zhecheng asked.

"It's been two days since I've been back," Yin Si nodded, took the New Year's painting he handed over, and looked at it, it was indeed good, so he put it away.

"Is there a way to poison Wang Weijin?" Last time, he said that he was looking for the kid from the snowy mountain, and asked for some way to suppress voodoo, but I don't know if I want it.

"It's okay, I've already dispensed medicine for her," Qingchuan gave the prescription very happily, and asked Kurong to hand it over to the Imperial History Mansion, telling them that once a day, they can't stop taking it, and they can eat it for half a year, so that the voodoo in the body can lie dormant again, but this poison still has to be taken as soon as possible. The voodoo on Wang Weijin's body has reached a peak, as long as the sacrifice is close, she may go berserk again, and when the time comes, the poison on her body will be incurable.

"Antidote, does the boy know how to prepare the antidote?" The method of suppressing voodoo, Liang Zhesi knew that the method of detoxification was what he wanted to know the most.

"Only people in the snowy mountains know," Yin Si shook his head, "I'm afraid it's this antidote, and some of the things in it are only found in the snowy mountains." ”

"Can an outsider go into the snowy mountains to ask for medicine?" Liang Zhesi couldn't wait to ask about the way up the mountain now, and then took Liang Zhecheng to ask for medicine.

"Naturally," Yin Si nodded, "However, there are all female dependents there, and if you go in, what's the matter, you have to leave a son and a half daughter before you can leave!" ”

"A son and a half daughter?" Liang Zhesi was dumbfounded, what kind of custom is this?

"This is the rule inside," Yin Si nodded, looking at him very sincerely, "Brother Liang rest assured, the people in their mountains are very open-minded, and they don't require you to marry Mingmei, and you still give them a hug, you just have to go, after a year and a half, if you give birth to a son, you will bring it back, and if you give birth to a daughter, you don't have to care about anything, just go down the mountain!" ”

The corners of Liang Zhesi's mouth twitched, what kind of custom is this, isn't this letting him go to the mountains to give children to others?

"Qingming's senior, I stayed in the snow mountain for three years, and there is a son and a half daughter here?"

"Don't you have a big grandson?" Yin Si smiled, "It doesn't have to be like this, it depends on your own determination, the girl here is very difficult to entangle, if you can hold it, then know it with reason, move it with affection, tell him that you have a lover outside your heart, and after a long time, they will naturally let you go!" ”

"Three years?" So, it takes three years to get down the mountain? Liang Zhesi shook his head, it's not appropriate, in this way, he has to leave here for three years, he is gone, who will take care of Huang Pi!

"Uncle is smart, it's only taken three years, you," Yin Si looked him up and down, "It is estimated that it will take a lifetime!" ”

"What do you mean I'm going to have to live for the rest of my life?" Liang Zhesi is very angry, are you turning around and scolding me for being stupid?

"I can let my mother go," really, no matter how bad it is, there is still a little Zhezhe, the female dependents go in, it won't be like this, right?

"It's good, then your brother, just wait for the recovery and come out with the child!" That's not bad, Yin Si nodded with satisfaction and smiled.

"No, the sick alsoβ€”" How short of men are there in the mountains?

"Let's let Lord Huang go," there are a lot of people who have fallen into voodoo, a few days ago, the borrowed soul lock bell found out a lot, Huang Pi loves the people like a son, he will not sit idly by, he is a smart person, can speak well, by him to ask for medicine, is the most suitable. It's not appropriate for this group of female dependents to stay in the mountains all the time, maybe Lord Huangpi can invite them all down the mountain if he works hard.

"No way!" Liang Zhesi immediately refused, "My lord is Dali Siqing, how can he be away from Beijing for so long?" ”

"If Lord Huang goes, it will be three months at most," Yin Si looked at Liang Zhesi, who was standing up excitedly, a little surprised.

"That's not going to work, if the adults are taken by those women, how can it be good?" The man is unmarried, the woman is unmarried, if he is not clear and has an heir, what will be good in the future?

"Then turn around and get married!" Huang Pi is so smart, it's not that a girl who doesn't have anything to do in the world can't be coaxed.

"What if everyone in it likes adults?" Liang Zhesi disagreed, Huang Pi has always been an honest and honest image, with Dali Temple as his home, as an official for eight years, he is clean and self-conscious, if he goes to the extreme northern snow mountain, he will bring back a bunch of daughters-in-law and concubines, what kind of system.

"Then marry them all!" Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Yin Si didn't understand why Liang Zhesi was so excited.

"No way!" These two words, Liang Zhesi replied very simply.

Yin Si didn't speak, but also stood up from the stool, and circled around Liang Zhesi several times, thinking of the picture he saw here last time, not only was he a little suspicious, was it?

"What do you see me doing?" Realizing that he had just lost his temper, Liang Zhesi sorted out his emotions, sat down again, and continued to swallow pastries.

"It's nothing," Yin Si also sat back, poured himself a cup of tea, and suppressed his shock, the fact, it shouldn't be what he thought, right?

"I don't have anything with adults, but I have worked together for many years, and I admire you, this time your proposal, I will relay it, but what the result is, it depends on the meaning of the adult." Liang Zhesi replied to Yin Si very seriously.

Yin Si nodded and looked away, but there was a different thought in his heart.

Liang Zhesi replied, why does he have a feeling that there are no three hundred taels of silver here?
